Evaluation by Sutton Archaeological Services for Linden Homes South-East Ltd of part of a site to be developed for residential use. Several sherds of Roman and medieval pottery, several prehistoric flints and an unidentifiable bronze coin were recovered. These were not associated with archaeological features and are thought likely to derive from upslope. A small ditch, a gully and a posthole were found; the ditch and gully contained no finds, though a small sherd of medieval pottery was recovered from the posthole.

Excavation by G Hayman of SCAU for Kajima UK Engineering Ltd, followed on from an evaluation programme involving fieldwalking, geophysics and trial trenching of an area to be developed as a golf course. The evaluation revealed a variety of features of Late Iron Age to Early Roman date. The excavation confirmed these findings, producing evidence for an irregular enclosure containing gullies, pits and postholes as well as two possible hearths. The majority of these features appear to be of 1st to 2nd century date, with some dating to the 3rd to 4th centuries.

Further excavation by G Cole for SHAHT. Additional features associated with the post-medieval tanning yard were recorded, as well as a number of features, including a possible cremation of Roman date. (290, 301)

Evaluation by G Hayman of SCAU for Conoco Ltd of the site of a proposed petrol filling station. Ancient soil horizons were found beneath modern levels, containing prehistoric, Roman and medieval material, indicating activity of all these periods in the vicinity. Several features were also recorded: a ditch of late 3rd to 4th century date; a ditch of late 13th century date; an undated ditch of some antiquity. No further features were noted during a subsequent watching brief on the redevelopment.

A watching brief by P Jones of SCAU, for the Abbey National Building Society, of works to the rear of the standing 17th century building, identified a tiled hearth of Roman date and an 18th century bricklined soakaway. The hearth was constructed of Lydion tiles and was almost certainly 4th century in date. A few sherds of late Roman pottery were also recorded.

An evaluation by G Hayman of SCAU for Pearce Construction (South East) Ltd, of a redevelopment site in the centre of the town, found that some of the site had been damaged by the construction of modern basements, but that extensive stratigraphy survived elsewhere. A sequence of prehistoric, Roman and medieval deposits was recorded. Subsequent excavation was carried out by T Ennis of Tempus Reparatum. The earliest activity on the site appears to have been Late Bronze Age, followed by occupation in the Late Iron Age or early Roman period.

Evaluation in 1994 of the first phases (centred TQ 062 630) proposed for mineral extraction, by Graham Hayman of SCAU on behalf of Ready Mixed Concrete (United Kingdom) Ltd. The area adjacent to the river Wey was found to consist of flood plain deposits and no features or finds of archaeological interest were recovered. The remaining areas produced evidence for numerous archaeological features indicating a concentration of activity, probably settlement, on an area of higher ground. Here pits, ditches and a possible ring-gully produced finds of prehistoric (Bronze or Iron Age) and Roman date.

Excavation by G Hayman of SCAU for English Heritage and Hall Aggregates Ltd in advance of mineral extraction, following on from evaluation in 1992. Evidence of extensive occupation activity dating from the Bronze Age to the end of the Roman period was recorded. Features included ditches, pits and postholes, indicating distinct or reused settlement areas - at least one of which could be described as an enclosure. It is possible that the site was more or less continuously occupied throughout the first millennium BC to the end of the 4th century AD.

Drainage and remodelling works on one of the greens disturbed some 235 fragments of brick tesserae, a quantity of roofing and roller-stamped hypocaust tile and a few pottery sherds, recovered by T Mann and recorded by D W Williams. (289)

Excavation by D W Williams for SyAS in advance of mineral extraction revealed two concentrations of activity. One was a concentration of pits, three of which contained Late Neolithic grooved ware and, palaeo-environmental assessment revealed, hazelnut shells; one of these pits also contained over 30 flint scrapers. Other pits were packed with charcoal and cremated bone, and one contained a Bronze Age spiral ring. The surrounding areas produced a variety of flints from Late Mesolithic through to Middle Bronze Age date, and sherds of decorated Peterborough type bowls from the Neolithic.
